Are you planning to get away this summer? We're thinking of heading either to Chicago, Savannah, San Francisco, or Martha's Vineyard, but I have to admit, with my poor lack of planning this year, we may simply end up at some Irish pub in Boston flicking coasters at eachother and sharing a few rounds with friends.

After our nearly 3 week adventure last summer to Baja Mexico and southern California, I doubt we'll top that this year. Visited beautiful sunny Baja, relaxed in San Diego and La Jolla (fish tacos are delicious), stayed on the beach in Santa Monica (drinking mojitos on the 3rd St. promenade was nice), shopped Montana Avenue, toured the Getty museum for the first time (loved that), met designer Rachel Ashwell, and then the ultimate highlight for those of us tucked away here in New England without much exposure to celebs - we attended the Batman Begins premiere in Hollywood.

So, we're still trying to figure out what to do this summer. What about you, any plans?
